neoliberalism, educational policy, international institutionsAbstract
The article analyses the Ecuadorian system of basic education during the years of neoliberalism, and relates curricular discourses of this period with global trends determined by international institutions, particularly the World Bank. Through a rigorous analysis of institutional documents, documentary sources and semi-structured interviews with Ecuadorian educational system actors, the research evaluates to what extent public policies developed in the nineties, were determined by the agenda of international cooperation.
